50 Uses Will Smith As Inspiration To Get Up

For his new video 50 Cent used some inspiration from the Will Smith movie, I Am Legend. "we came up with a concept for it, just a little more futuristic. I took a scene that I seen in a Will Smith film, 'I Am Legend.' 50 told MTV "..It's a collage that I thought was interesting" [watch here]. 50 continued "In the beginning of 'I Am Legend,' New York City was desolate, like everything was just gone. Instead, that'll be Los Angeles. … There was a scene, one of the creatures was running into the glass, and I kinda re-created that in my own way" [watch here]

50 says "Get Up" is like 2 Pac's "California Love" saying "It's the same key and being played in the same key. … It's the first thing that came to my head when I heard the beat. That's what I feel like great music does." 50 Continued "because I felt that way I started off, 'I came to bring you that California love and New York hate, all of the above.' " [watch here]. After all, "Get Up" [listen here] is produced by Dr. Dre's former right-hand-man, Scott Storch.

50's "Before I Self Destruct" features a track with Eminem called "Norman Bates Motel." 50 says "I went to Detroit and we had an opportunity to work together…Three songs we recorded together…One I really liked it and he really liked it, so he kept it for his album" [watch here] 50 continued saying "I went back and we made two more songs and we got "Norman Bates Hotel" out of that, it's exciting."
